Farrah Fawcett injured her wrist in a scene from the off-Broadway play "Extremities" in the early 1980s and had Andy Warhol and Keith Haring sign the cast at a party all three attended. An artist herself, she was both fan and friend to Warhol and Haring and kept the cast as a memento. As she did with many items from her professional career, she later gifted the cast to a friend.
